  WOW! Does this bring back some memories!
  I also went to the Glen USGP for the first time in '68; I guess that was
the start of my downfall. I still have my tickets, also. I swore that some
day I'd race there; 39 years later, I did the SVRA Vintage GP. Had a blast.

  We called them "field cars" at my place. I had a '49 Ford and my pal Andy
had a '50 Chevy. Buddy Mike had something, not sure what. After our crops
were taken off one field, in the Fall of '66, I think, I made an oval by
using my dad's 8 foot disc. Had slight banking on the turns using the
existing terrain. We took the mufflers off and tied the doors shut for
safety and had at it. After a while we stopped to let the dust settle and
noticed several cars had stopped along the road to watch! Great fun. Un
fortunately, no photos.

  Great photos.
  As Bob Hope once said, thanks for the memories>
